Answer:

2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of rain, P(R) = 0.2

Probability of leak Given that it rains, P(L|R) = 0.1

Probability of leak Given that it does not rain, P(L|R') = 0

According to Baye's Rule:

P(L) = [P(L|R) * P(R)] + [P(L|R') * P(R')]

P(R') = 1 - P(R) = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8

P(L) = [0.1 * 0.2] + [0 * 0.8]

P(L) = 0.02 + 0

P(L) = 0.02

Hence, probability of a roof leak on Thursday is 0.02 = (0.02 * 100%) = 2%

Anyone know the answer to this
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Part A:

- angle ACB= 60° (ABC equilateral triangle.)

- Angle ECD=EDC= (180°-32°)/2= 148/2= 74° (sum of angles in a triangle is equal to 180, and triangle ECD is isosceles since it's given that CE=DE.

- x= 180°-(60°+74°)

   = 180°-134°

   = 46°

x= 46°

Part B:

120°
